DIY Glitter Glue Spider Webs for Halloween

Looking for black and white home decorating ideas for Halloween? Take a look at this fireplace and mantel and instructions to make glitter glue spider webs.

We are still decorating for Halloween. We will probably be finished on Halloween … just in time for trick or treaters, and just in time to remove it all the next day and replace it with a little autumn decor.

One of these days I will be prepared early. But clearly that won’t be happening this year.

This room is the main room in our house. The room where we all gather. It’s a large open floor plan with our dining table (not the dining room, but the dinner table where we eat most meals) and our kitchen. So it was only fitting that I decorate a room that we spend a lot of our time.

As you can see I tried to keep it within the same color scheme and theme as the formal dining room.

I actually didn’t need to purchase anything to decorate this space, everything that I used I had on hand, even the bags of webs that I hadn’t used last year.

My favorite piece is the skeletal system poster. It’s something I picked up while shopping in Old Towne Orange one weekend last year. I used Mod Podge to adhere it to a piece of board from an old poster frame.

The bats on the walls are paper bats I made for our front door a couple of years ago, and the owl is from the twins’ Harry Potter birthday party. I love cheeky white rat looking at it through the cage. It’s almost teasing it.

There was one new addition, but nothing I purchased. The black pumpkin in the crate is something that we’ve used for many years. It started off as a black cat pumpkin that I painted, then just became a piece of the regular Halloween decor each year following. This year though I decided to add a glittery spider web to it.
